1. The new Inverness West Link Road will link the Southern Distributor Road at Dores Road with the A82 Trunk Road.
The Highland Council in northern Scotland has appointed 2762 Capita Symonds to assist the Council’s Project Design Unit in providing detailed design civil engineering and supporting services for the new US $ 43.85 million (£27.2mn) Inverness West Link Road.
The scheme will be completed in two phases – a year-long first phase which will involve developing a detailed design which will allow The1624 Highland Council to subdivide the project into two construction stages, clearly define the layouts and footprints for the new road, and produce updated estimated costs for the project.
The detailed design work will include the preparation of the drawings and details and the specifications for each construction element of the project in readiness for the Council to prepare tender documents.
The detailed design work will include the information required by the Highland Council to obtain all statutory consents, including traffic orders, land acquistion and planning.
Councillor Graham Phillips, chairman of the council’s transport environmental and community services committee, said:
“This is a significant piece of work, which will help move the project forward and ensure we maintain momentum to enhance land use planning and deliver an efficient transport network to the south and west of the city.”
